The kids didn't laugh about his name, but they all played baseball and had lunch together without him. That was the whole problem. No one saw him or talked to him or even knew he was there.So when Telesforo went to school this morning, his head was bowed and his feet kicked at anything on the sidewalk.As usual, his teacher Mrs Benson read to the class from the newspaper, and today Telesforo was surprised when she read about the US Mint (铸币厂) making five special coins every year to honor each of the 50 states.He knew all about those shiny new state coins. He and his dad collected them. Dad gave him a small album to hold them. By the end of the year, Telesforo would have all 50. By the time he was ready for bed that night, he decided to take his coins to school tomorrow.The next day, when the kids settled, Telesforo opened his album and held it high for the class to see. “These are the coins Mrs Benson read ab out. And this is John Muir on the California coin，” he said, pointing. “Muir wanted to save the wilderness.” Telesforo spoke rapidly as he explained the designs: North Carolina and the first airplane flight. South Dakota, with four presidents carved on Mount Rushmore.“How can I get some of these coins? Why don't we meet after school？” Joshasked. “And Tel can explain everything we need to know.”Tel? Josh just called him Tel? Like they knew he existed? Like they were longtime friends? Telesforo held his album and smiled. So he did have friends.4．Why didn't Telesforo want to go to school at first?A．Because he wasn't good at playing baseball.B．Because his teacher didn't like him asking questions.C．Because his classmates were cold to him.D．Because his classmates laughed at him.5．From whom did Telesforo get the idea to make friends with his new classmates?A．His father. B．His mother.C．His classmates. D．His teacher.6．How did Telesforo manage to make friends in the new school?A．By giving each of his classmates a special coin.B．By sharing the story of his collections with his classmates.C．By helping his teacher to read the newspaper to the class.D．By giving a brief introduction to American history in class.7．When he heard that he was called “Tel”, Telesforo felt ________.A．glad B．angry C．nervous D．ashamedCChina is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors—silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.It's fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle.Great weather accompanied(陪伴) my great buy. I immediately jumped up on mybicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn't want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully. Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The airhitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.8. According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?A. Because they are traditional and safe.B. Because they are convenient and not expensive.C. Because they are colorful and available.D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.9 The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended _______.A. to ride it for funB. to use it for transportC. to experience local cultureD. to improve his riding skills10. How did the author feel about his street crossing?A. It was boring.B. It was difficult.C. It was lively.D. It was wonderful.11. Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience?A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.C. The author was praised by the other bikers.D. The author took great pleasure in biking.DThe history of civil engineering (土木工程) is a very important story in the development of civilization (文明). Civil engineers began practising their profession four thousand years ago.What is left of their work is the proof that they were wise. These engineers of the ancient world built entire cities. They designed systems of pipes which supplied fresh water. They built water pipelines for farmlands as well as bridges of great length. Therelics of their buildings tell us much about the work of early engineers.Consider the pyramids(金字塔) of Egypt. They are evidence that some of the earliest engineers had great scientific ability. There is also evidence that those engineers could make lasting work of art and design. Although they lived thousands of years ago, the Egyptian engineers used very exact measurements. The base of the largest pyramid—the Great Pyramid near Giza—comes to within inches of being a perfect square. The pyramid is perfectly placed. Each corner points toward the exact directions of north, south, east and west. The inside of the pyramid is filled with complicated (复杂的) passages (通道). These lead to different rooms inside the pyramid. Many of these passages are of great length and height.The engineers of Egypt did more than design the pyramids. They also set up methods of moving and shaping the building materials. These materials were very heavy. They had to be brought from miles away and sometimes lifted several hundred feet. During the work the engineers commanded thousands of workers. The pyramids remain as evidence of the abilities of the ancient Egyptian engineers.12．The civil engineers of ancient times were wise enough to build entire cities, including ____ .A．systems of pipes, bridges and machineryB．pipeline systems, bridges and farmlandsC．water supply systems, bridges and pipelinesD．water supply systems, bridges and stadiums13. Which of the following is not true about the Great Pyramid of Egypt?A. It was exactly measured.B. It is near Giza.C. Its base is a square.D. It has rooms of great height. 14．From the passage we know that ________ .A．building materials were broken into small piecesB．there were no requirements for the size and shape of building materialsC．Egyptian engineers were not concerned with the size and shape of building materialsD．building materials were processed (加工) to meet certain requirements15. What is the purpose of this text?A. To introduce to us how the pyramids of Egypt was built.B. To tell us how to move materials in the ancient times.C. To show that the ancient engineers made great contributions in the development of civilization.D. To introduce some great works in the ancient times.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ADear Dad,Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together.I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart.You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear (档位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn't have much tolerance for a stubborn 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's wishing that never had to end.I love you, Dad.Love,Jenny1.How did Jenny probably feel on the night she was sent home by the police?A. Disappointed.B. Nervous.C. Guilty.D. Frightened.2. We can learn from the passage that Jenny and her father_________.A. kept in touch by writing each otherB. are separated due to the generation gapC. have been getting along very wellD. had a hard time understanding each other3. Why did Jenny feel strange when she saw her father last week?.A. She seldom saw him driving that huge car.B.She had never realized his being old and weak.C. She didn't expect to meet with him there.D.She had never seen him driving so slowly before.4. Jenny wrote his father this letter to _________.A. tell him about their conflictsB. say sorry for her being stubbornC. express her gratitude to himD. remind him of the early incidentBHoney from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar，it is also delicious.Most people，and many animals，like eating it.However，the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees' nest and take the honey from it.Often，these nests are high up in trees，and it is difficult to find them.In parts of Africa，though，people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper－a little bird called a honey guide.The honey guide does not actually like honey，but it does like the wax in the beehives (蜂房)．The little bird cannot reach this wax，which is deep inside the bees' nest.So，when it finds a suitable nest，it looks for someone to help it.The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people.Once it has their attention，it flies through the forest，waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest.When they finally arrive at the nest，the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches.Some of the honey，and the wax，always falls to the ground，and this is when the honey guide takes its share.Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax，but it is very determined in its efforts to get it.The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away.They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives，and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit.5．Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?A．It's small in size. B．It's hidden in trees.C．It's covered with wax. D．It's hard to recognize.6．What do the words “the follower” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．A bee. B．A bird.C．A honey seeker. D．A beekeeper.7．The honey guide is special in the way________．A．it gets its food B．it goes to churchC．it sings in the forest D．it reaches into bees'nests8．What can be the best title for the text?A．Wild Bees B．Wax and HoneyC．Beekeeping in Africa D．Honey­Lover's HelperCIt was the end of my junior year, the weekend before prom (毕业舞会). I was riding with some friends, and a bottle was passed around the car. Everyone was taking swigs(一大口). When the bottle got to me, I thought:“What should I do?”I took a swig. It was the biggest mistake of my life. I had to drive home later that night.I went back to my car, got in and drove off. At a stop sign I saw a policeman sitting in the parking lot across the street. His headlights were turned on, and I knew he was going to follow me. Then he flashed his lights at me. All I could think was: “Oh no, that swig!”I pulled over and waited for him to come to my door. It felt like forever. “Can I see your license and registration, please, Miss?” I gave them to him. He took them and went back to his car for a while. When he returned, he asked if I had been drinking.“No,” I said. He asked me to step out of my car.“Walk heel to toe down the white line, please.” I passed the test. Next he had me stand on my left foot, lift my right foot and hold it for 30 seconds. I’m not the mostcoordinated (动作协调的) person and I can’t even walk and chew gum at the same time, so, needless to say, I didn’t pass. Then he asked me to take a breathalyzer test.That was where I messed up. I told him I didn’t want to and didn’t understand why I had to. The officer asked me three more times, and I continued to refuse. He told me to turn around and place my hands behind my back. He arrested me right then and there.The policeman drove me to a police station 20 minutes from my home. He called my parents and told them where I was.I went to court two months after that, charged with refusing to obey an officer. I got a $700 (4,340 yuan) fine and 40 hours of community service. I’ll be on probation (缓刑) for a year, and I’ll have to take the driving test again. I lost my license for a whole year.This was a huge learning experience for me. It opened my eyes to how easy it is to make a stupid decision. I want everyone reading this to know that it’s not right to drink and drive. It definitely isn’t worth losing your license over.9.From the first paragraph, we can conclude that the author __________.A. didn’t remember she had to drive home later when riding with her friendsB. wished she had refused to drink that nightC. felt just one mouthful would not affect her drivingD. lost her driving license on the way10.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A. The author was in jail for 40 hours and had to do community service.B. The author thought her punishment shouldn’t be so serious.C. The author was really sorry that she had made a serious mistake.D. The author believed she would have avoided punishment if she had obeyed thepoliceman.11.What is the main purpose of the article?A. To warn people against driving after drinking.B. To explain how policemen test drivers.C. To show that severe punishment works.D. To blame the author’s thoughtless friends.DIf you need glasses to read this, you are among the majority of Chinese students. That’s because most students in China are short-sighted which means they can only see things close up and distant things will be blurry. Four-fifths of high school students wear glasses and now more and more children in primary school need glasses, too.This epidemic of poor eyesight has two very simple causes: too much time spent indoors studying and too little time spent outdoors playing. Reading and writing for hours and hours, sometimes in poorly lighted rooms, causes eyesight to weaken. But students have to do this because there is so much pressure on them to succeed in school. And because they spend so much time indoors at school and at home, they have less time to spend outdoors enjoying the sun.The sun, as a consequence, is important in developing good eyesight. Exposure to daylight releases a chemical in the eyes that prevents, or at least delays, short-sightedness. According to a study by Ian Morgan of Australian National University, Australian children and Chinese children have the same level of eyesight before they start school, but once they enter primary school, Chinese children only spend about an hour a day outside, while Australian children spend three to four hours each day in the sunshine. The result is that while about 40 percent of Chinese primary school students need glasses, only three percent of Australian children do.Wearing glasses may not seem like a big deal. For some, wearing glasses can even bean opportunity to make a fashion statement. But poor eyesight at a young age can have serious long term consequences. As you get older, your eyesight can worsen and lead to things like macular degeneration(黄斑变性), a condition of the eyes for which there is no cure and which can eventually lead to blindness.With all that in mind, don’t you think it’s time to give your eyes a break? Try spending a little less time inside and go for a walk in the park, instead. It’s the healthy thing to do and your eyes will thank you for it.12.What does the underlined word “blurry”mean?A. unpopular.B. unpleasant.C. unclear.D. unconscious.13.How should the students protect their eyesight according to the passage?A. They should study less and less.B. They should stay longer outdoors.C. They should wear sun-glasses.D. They should have a longer rest in bed.14.It can be inferred from the passage that _____ is to blame for the poor eyesight ofChinese children.A. the ever-worsening bad weatherB. the ever-increasing burden of studyC. the ever-decreasing sunny daysD. the ever-decreasing period of study time15.What is the purpose of this article?A. To explain why Chinese students are poor-sighted.B. To admire Aust ralian children’s good eyesight.C. To criticize the present education system.D. To call on people to protect Chinese children’s eyesight第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It is always on a Tuesday in February or March and celebrated in English-speaking countries like the UK, Ireland, Australia and Canada. In some countries, like France and the USA, it is called "Mardi Gras" or "Fat Tuesday". In other countries, like Spain, Italy or Brazil, Pancake Day is at the end of Carnival(狂欢节). On this day many people eat pancakes, a thin, flat cake made in a pan.A tradition on Pancake Day in the UK is pancake racing. People run in a race with a pancake in a pan. As they run, they have to toss the pancake (throw the pancake in the air and catch it in the pan) several times. In some races people dress up in fancy clothes. The most famous pancake race takes place in a town called Olney, in the middle of England, which has been celebrating pancake races since 1445.Pancakes are very easy to make. Try our recipe(食谱).What you need: One cup of flour; One cup of milk; One large egg; Some salt; Some butter or oil; Lemon juice; Some sugar.Instructions: Fill one cup with flour and put into a bowl. Fill another cup with milk and pour into the bowl. Crack(敲碎) the egg into the bowl and mix the flour, milk and egg until the mixture is smooth. Put a very small amount of butter or oil in a pan, and when it is hot, put some mixture in the pan and move the pan to make a thin pancake. After one minute hold the pan carefully and throw or toss the pancake in the air to turn it over. Now cook the pancake on the other side.When the pancake is ready, squeeze some lemon juice and put some sugar on it and eat it immediately. If you don't like lemon juice, eat them with jam, chocolate sauce or ice cream. Mmm, delicious!12. Among the following countries, which are mentioned in the passage to have celebrated Pancake Day?A.
